Envy 27 Recline (k309)
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

What are the compatible mini-PCIE WiFi adapter cards for the Envy 27 Recline (k309). I currently have the Intel AC7260, on its last legs. 

 

The AC7260 is single band (2.4GHz).

 

Will a Intel AC8265 work (with appropriate drivers)? It is dual band. 

 

Thanks in advance.

Ian

Hi:

 

The Intel 7260 AC wifi card is a dual band card.

 

You already have the best available wifi adapter at the time...the Intel 7260 AC

Nothing newer will work because they changed the form factor of the wifi cards from the HMC form factor to the M.2 form factor.

 

If the card is going out on you, replace it with this part number...

 

Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 802.11 ac 2x2 WiFi + BT 4.0     HP Part # 710661-001

 

The card is readily available on eBay or Amazon.

Search by the HP part number, not by the model number of the wireless card.
